Judge Rules
For Deportation

New York (JTA) — A fed-
eral judge in Florida has or-
dered the deportation to
Lithuania of a resident of
the St. Petersburg area who
Prwas a member of a Lithua-
nian mobile killing unit dur-
Tng World War II.
The U.S. Immigration
Court in Miami entered the
, deportation order on Aug. 6
'against Antanas Mineikis,
>of South Pasadena, Fla.,
after he failed to respond to
an order issued at the behest
of the Justice Department's
' Office of Special Investiga-
tions.
Mr. Mineikis also did not
;D attend the required court
hearing.
The government charged
that Mr. Mineikis was in-
volved in Nazi- sponsored
acts of persecution while
serving as a member of the
12th Lithuanian Auxiliary
'Security Police Battalion,
g.lso known as the Lithua-
nian Schutzmannschaft,
during World War II.
At the July 1991 hearing,
the government presented
evidence which included a
onfession by Mr. Mineikis
that on several occasions he
had transported Jews in
--Byelorussia to death pits
which they had been forced
to dig.
Mr. Mineikis said he had
not shot the victims but had
watched. "I drove a truck to
about six shootings," he said
in a sworn statement.
. D He said that in June 1941,
he was living near Vilna,
Lithuania, when the Ger-
mans invaded. "I was taken
into the German army," but
) given a Lithuanian uniform,
{ he said.
° In 1941, he was sent to
Minsk, Byelorussia. "The
Germans offered money to
members of my unit to shoot
people," he testified, but "I
c did not volunteer."
--- He said, "I was ordered to
:?rive a truck to where the
people were and transport
them to the place where they
were shot. I made several
trips each time a shooting
happened."
He said that afterward, he
-_was accused of being a spy
and was shot in a pit that he
was forced to dig. He said he
escaped from the pit after six
‘hours, was captured by the
I Germans and later by the
Americans.
He was captured by U.S.
forces in September 1944,
placed in a prisoner-of-war
camp and later released. He
entered the United States
from England in June 1956
and became a citizen.
